ListFormat
Synopsis
[Miscellaneous] ListFormat=n
n is an integer in the range 0—3. The default value is 0.
Description
ListFormat determines which values should be compressed within a list. The possible options for ListFormat are:
-
0 — no compression in a list
-
1 — $DOUBLE (IEEE) values in a list are compressed
-
2 — Unicode strings in a list are compressed
-
3 — Both $DOUBLE and Unicode strings in a list are compressed
If using lists with external clients (Java, C#, etc), ensure that the external client supports the compressed list format.
Changing This Parameter
On the Compatibility page of the Management Portal (System Administration > Configuration > Additional Settings > Compatibility), in the ListFormat row, click Edit. Enter the desired value for this setting.
Instead of using the Management Portal, you can change ListFormat in the Config.MiscellanousOpens in a new tab class (as described in the class reference) or by editing the CPF with a text editor.
